Re: ECB 2.27 released!!

Hi,

I am nagging again...

FYI, this feature still fails for me with GNU Emacs 21.3.1
(i586-suse-linux, X toolkit, Xaw3d scroll bars).

Of course, it's no big deal...

... because that's what I am going to do. :-)

Re: ECB 2.27 released!!

It failed for me until I created a file ~/.wgetrc to point the program
to my proxy server. Now it's working very well. I'm running XP Pro
with Cygwin installed (the XP version of Emacs, not the Cygwin
version)

Here's the format for the file:

------.wgetrc-------
# Define your proxies
# proxy_type = http://proxy:port

http_proxy = http://your.httpproxy.com:8008
ftp_proxy = http://your.ftpproxy.com:8081

# If you do not want to use proxy at all, set this to off
use_proxy = on

Thanks, but I am not behind a proxy. 

In my case wget has no problem downloading the list of available
files; but for some reason ECB fails to parse that list.

RE: ECB 2.27 released!!

Well, now this bug is fixed - it was a problem concerning i18n...
ECB failed to parse the wget-result when different LOKALE was set
by the user, for example "de_DE <at> euro". Now ECB itself sets tempor.
LC_ALL=C (thanks to Christop Ludwig for this hint) when calling
external processes like wget .. now it works...correct also when
different LOKALEs were set.

The bugfix is already checked in and can also be downloaded
via the latest CVS-snapshot from the ECB-website ==> so the
upgrading to the next ECB-version 2.28 the command `ecb-download-ecb'
should work when you install the latest CVS-snapshot!

Ciao,
Klaus

ECB 2.27: Problems setting ecb-source-path

Hi, ECB!

I've just installed ecb-2.27 on my GNU Emacs 21.3, and I obviously need to
set up ecb-source-path before I can use ECB.

The info page "Setq or Customize - what should I use?" states, rather
dogmatically:

> The best way to customize all the options of ECB is via the
> customize-feature of (X)Emacs, i.e. means calling the commands
> `customize-option' or `customize-group' etc. This is also the strongly
> recommended way.

My list of source directories came from "# find . -type d > directories.txt",
and is of a length I would rather not admit to online.  ;-)  If I have to
enter each one of them individually into "customize-option"'s point-and-click
interface, then ECB is sadly not the right tool for me.  :-(

Obviously, I need to massage my "directories.txt" into something which will be
the right-hand-side of a `setq', then load-file this when I start ECB.
Looking at C-h v ecb-source-path sadly gives no clue as to what form the
list of directories should take.  Is it simply a Lisp list?  Or a list of
dotted pairs (DIRECTORY . ALIAS)?  Or something else?

Now I can enter a few directories by hand in `customize-group', save these
settings, then look at my .emacs to see what the format is.  But I think it
would be better if ECB's Info pages dealt with this situation (a very large
number of source directories), and ecb-source-path's doc-string actually
described the format of ecb-source-path's value.

IMO it makes sense to recommend this strongly - especially for users which are not firm with elisp - and ECB is
designed in general to give such people an IDE for programming without the need of lisp - means without the
really NO need of any lisp in the best case! These people should avoid to setting options via setq, because
without ot only basic-lisp know-how this results often in slightly wrong set option-values, so ECB does
not what a user expects ECB to do and this in turn results in a lot of question to the mailing-list which could
easily avoided when users use the error-save customize-interface!

But i admit that for some situations (described in the manually, e.g. for site-wide Emacs-admins) there
are needs for programmatically precustomizing ECBs options ==> The ECB-manual introduces the
setq-save macro etc....

Ok, i see that especially the option ecb-source-path needs also a special mention concerning "How to set
this without customize"...

If you set ecb-source-path with setq BEFORE ECB is started then this can be done without problems! Well, i
will mention this in an appropriate manner in the manual.

ECB-2.27 -- semantic warnings

I don't know if this is a big deal, but I get these warnings in a *Compile-Log* buffer when ECB starts up.

While compiling toplevel forms:

  ** semantic-before-toplevel-bovination-hook is an obsolete variable; use

     semantic--before-fetch-tags-hook instead.

  ** variable semantic-after-partial-cache-change-hook bound but not

ECB 2.27 and ediff


Hi,

  I'm having problems using ediff when compilation window is visible,
with following error message: "ECB 2.27 - Error: Stored sizes of
layout left15 not applicable for current window layout!". Everything
works as expected when compilation window is not visible, and it also
well when using ecb version 2.26 regardless of compilation buffer
visibility. I tried this by reverting to a free ecb-less clean state,
on another machine as well. 

 I don't know if it is important but as XEmacs packages where not
available I've performed byte-compilation myself by editing supplied
make.bat script. However this caused no problems now nor for other
previous versions that I've used.
